I am posting this again as for some reason my previous attempt at posting a topic resulted in no posts!

I have recently moved my BP site to a new server and since doing so, the group forums are not working.

Posts/topics show up in the activity stream, but when I click the link to a forum post I get the following message:

“Page not found
We’re sorry, but we can’t find the page that you’re looking for. Perhaps searching will help.”

When I navigate to the forum page for each group I see:

“Sorry, there were no forum topics found.”

All of the posts are showing in the MySQL database for my site, so I am at a loss as to what is causing the issue. Could someone help me troubleshoot this?

Thanks,

Nick

Did you move your bb-config.php across? If the database user/password changed, did you update those details in the bb-config.php?

Did the absolute path of the bb-config.php change? If so, you’ll need to go into wp-admin > Settings > BuddyPress > Forums, and “reinstall”.

Many thanks Paul. I hadn’t updated the database user/password in bb-config.php. It’s working now.
